Product Description
The PPCM2 further extends GE Intelligent Platforms XtraPower family of dual processor boards, offering high performance processing and I/O interfaces from two fully independent compute nodes. With enhanced high bandwidth
inter-board communications via 2eSST VME and onboard StarFabric, PPCM2 is ideal for a wide range of compute-intensive, realtime applications.
Each compute node features the PowerPC 7448 processor and Discovery III Integrated System Controller supporting high capacity DDR SDRAM, Flash memory and NVRAM. In addition each node supports its own dedicated I/O resources including GPIO, Serial and Gigabit Ethernet plus its own PCI-X-capable PMC. Shared resources include further GPIO and USB 2.0 plus 2eSST VME and two StarFabric ports.
The PPCM2’s loosely coupled architecture targets demanding real-time applications with each node running separate instances of the chosen operating system. Supported operating systems include VxWorks from
Wind River. Mission- critical applications can also benefit from GE Intelligent Platforms comprehensive Deployed Test software for the PPCM2.
